While Apple TV+ is making history with genre-bending content every day, Servant remains an underrated horror gem on the network. It surprises me that despite its 90% score on Rotten Tomatoes, M. Night Shyamalan’s slow-burning horror mystery hasn’t been given its due.

In a span of 4 seasons and 40 episodes, the show delves into themes of grief, faith, cults, and supernatural forces. From the eerie feeling it leaves you with, to the episodes so scary, you have to sleep with the lights on after you watch them, this masterpiece of a show didn’t receive the kind of love and obsession it deserved. Let’s get into why we think the show deserved much more.

Apple TV+’s Servant Is a Unique Blend of Slow-Burn Horror and Brilliant Performances

Servant is the kind of show that grips you from the word go. It’s a classic example of tension and...

Servant on Apple TV+ is one of the most mind-bending, jaw-dropping tales ever served on Ott, and you can’t tell me otherwise. It thrives on a slow-burn form of dread, the kind that lingers on, the kind that keeps you awake at night. While the entire seriously underrated show is based on bone-chilling moments that keep you on the edge of your seat, Episode 9 from Season 1, Jericho, takes the cake.

Even when I rewatch the show, years after its release, I am taken over by creepiness and can’t shake off the uncomfortable feeling it leaves me with. The episode is largely regarded as one of the scariest episodes of the show. Let’s deep-dive into this masterclass of examining human emotions of grief, denial, and the supernatural.

Why is Jericho The Scariest Servant Episode?

Jericho, Episode 9 of season 1 of Servant, catalyzes the haunting premise of the show, turning it into a gut-wrenching reality.

It’s saying something that people Still talk about Scandal years after the series closed the chapter on Olivia Pope and company.

When the series premiered, it featured some recognizable faces. Still, several actors weren’t immediately familiar to audiences, yet became big stars during the series’ primetime reign.

Now that the series has been over for seven years (!), we decided to take a look to see what the cast has been up to lately.

For some, their work has stayed in front of the camera, but several cast members have also done a lot of work behind the camera.

Star Kerry Washington has been involved in numerous projects as her career continues to rise, reaching new heights during the Scandal era.

It comes as no surprise that the WWE Superstars have a knack for wrestling, and sooner or later, the wrestlers make a transition in their career and hope to make it big in Tinsel Town. Over the years, renowned talents like Dwayne Johnson, John Cena, Dave Batista, Big Show, and many more have made their debut in films or TV series.

However, Show’s appearance was significantly different from his locker room colleague, as fans were confused about his role in the fantasy horror series, Van Helsing. Despite the show concluding back in 2021, fans are still confused to this day about the star’s role and what its significance was in the plot.

Interestingly, his role added a layer of depth to his brute personality, which made the show so memorable.

Television shows — even brilliant ones — get canceled all the time. The era of network television has seen (and will see) innumerable cancellations (with shows like "Late Night Horror" being allegedly erased due to controversy), but the streaming era has fast-tracked this notion to levels never seen before. One only has to look at the long list of canceled Netflix shows that are still worth watching, some of which have been axed before they got a chance to bloom. It's rare for a nixed series to be brought back to life due to fan campaigns, but the CBS series "Jericho" accomplished this after its abrupt season 1 cancellation. This was one of those rare moments where audience sentiment eclipsed profit-oriented logic, as "Jericho" had amassed a cult following despite receiving mixed ratings in 2006. Alas, the show wasn't meant to be known for its longevity, as "Jericho" got canceled again after a second season comprising seven episodes.

In the world of diverse content on streaming platforms, Apple TV+’s Servant is another hidden gem. It’s also one of the less popular shows on the platform. Servant was created by Tony Basgallop and executive producer, the famous M. Night Shyamalan.

It is a psychological horror show that first aired on 28 November 2019 and lasted for a span of 4 seasons, till 17 March 2023. The show garnered immense critical acclaim, so much so that it has a perfect 90% score on Rotten Tomatoes. The series is a masterful blend of intense storytelling along with supernatural elements that creates the atmosphere of intense intrigue and dread.

Servant is a perfectly underrated psychological horror

The story is set in Philadelphia and revolves around the lives of the Turner Family and their nanny. Though it did not become a household name, the show is one of the most underrated series on television, and one that deserves a lot greater recognition.

It’s that time we’ve all dreaded.

Of course, it’s been heaven for all of us watching it, as we’ve completely fallen in love with The Pitt’s remarkable cast and this fantastically written series that no one can stop lauding.

As we saw, The Pitt Season 1 Episode 14 wrapped up the last bits of the mass shooting. However, it doesn’t mean that the effects of it don’t linger on remaining patients and the doctors who spent the better part of three hours desperately trying to save lives after getting pushed to their limit.

Jay North, who played Dennis Mitchell in the original 1959 “Dennis the Menace” TV series, died Sunday after a battle with cancer, his long-time friend Laurie Jacobson confirmed in a social media post. He was 73.

“Our dear friend Jay North has been fighting cancer for a number of years and this morning at noon Est, Jay passed peacefully at home,” Jacobson wrote. “As many of his fans know, he had a difficult journey in Hollywood and after…but he did not let it define his life. He had a heart as big as a mountain, loved his friends deeply. He called us frequently and ended every conversation with ‘I love you with all my heart.’ And we loved him with all of ours. A life-long friend of Jon’s, a brother to Jeanne and a dear friend to me, we will miss him terribly. He is out of pain now. His suffering is over.

February 24 marked the first anniversary of Star Trek: Discovery actor Kenneth Mitchell’s death following five years of living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Als), commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease. Mitchell, post-diagnosis, made the most of every moment as a husband, father, friend, and actor, and it’s well worth taking a look back at what he accomplished during his 49 years on Earth.

Hailing from Toronto, Canada, Mitchell initially gained traction as a model before shifting to acting. He amassed nearly 50 film and television credits before his death. Among those credits were the movies Miracle and Captain Marvel, recurring or series regular roles on Odyssey 5, Jericho, Ghost Whisperer, Switched at Birth, The Astronaut Wives Club, Frequency, Nancy Drew, and The Old Man, as well as numerous guest shots. He was, of course, best known for portraying the Klingon characters Kol, Kol-Sha, and Tenavik, as well as Aurellio,...

Homer’s ancient Greek epic poem “The Odyssey” remains one of the oldest pieces of literature still read by modern audiences. It chronicles the story of Greek hero Odysseus during his tumultuous journey home following the Trojan War.

Salvation is a sci-fi mystery thriller drama series created by Liz Kruger, Craig Shapiro, and Matt Wheeler. The CBS series follows a group of people as they discover that an asteroid will hit the Earth in six months and destroy the planet.

When it comes to William Shatner, the first thing we all think of is his turn as James T. Kirk on Star Trek: The Original Series and its subsequent films. After that, we probably think of Rescue: 911, T.J. Hooker, Boston Legal, his Priceline commercials, and maybe his many cameos across television. Somewhere after his latest Rt show, and right after a random photo of him riding a horse, we get to TekWar.

What is TekWar, you ask? Well, it's William Shatner's attempt to create a hip and timely story of the growing concerns around internet addiction and the rampant drug use of the late 1980s and early 1990s. It started as a book series, which was mostly written by Ron Goulart, even if Shatner came up with the idea, and later became a television show.

The TV adaptation of the video game series Fallout has recently shed new light on post-apocalyptic TV shows, delivering an alternate future that few would like to experience, but is highly entertaining to follow. Post-apocalyptic stories date back to 1826, when legendary author Mary Shelley birthed the thrilling subgenre with her dystopian novel The Last Man (1826). The movie industry only began making post-apocalyptic stories much later. That said, television has also given viewers some inventive stories about survivors coming to terms with living on a destroyed Earth.

The best post-apocalyptic TV shows often have creative ideas for presenting their take on the subgenre. Whether it be zombies, aliens, or some other inexplicable disaster, these series succeed in balancing character dynamics, intimidating threats, and bleak yet visually stunning environments. From popular series like The Last of Us and The Walking Dead to underrated gems like Jericho and Falling Skies, these are the...

Some shows are canceled way before their time, leaving us with major cliffhangers and questions. The axe can often come for sci-fi and fantasy shows, since they often have bigger budgerts than other kinds of series. We’re looking back at five shows that were canceled way too soon.

In some cases, these shows just needed another few episodes of a movie to wrap things up, or maybe they got their chance to finish things but didn't do in a way that did the rest of the show justice. In some cases, they wrapped things up well, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want more.

2024 saw some major cancellations. However, this list will take us back a few years (or even decades)!

If you’ve been keeping up with Star Wars news recently, you’ll know that ‘Star Wars: The Acolyte,’ the latest addition to the franchise, has been canceled after just 8 episodes. The show faced controversy even before its premiere, and its poor quality, combined with a hefty $180 million budget, only made matters worse for everyone involved.

Although the show started off well, with viewership numbers just slightly below ‘Ahsoka,’ it quickly began to lose viewers week after week, and criticism on social media intensified.

Despite its cancellation, The Acolyte has managed to gather a devoted fanbase that’s now pushing for Disney+ to renew the show. The hashtag #SaveTheAcolyte is trending on X (formerly Twitter), and a Change.org petition has already garnered 43,342 signatures. But what are the chances of the show actually getting renewed?

Still, the show managed to amass a loyal fandom that’s now petitioning for Disney+ to renew the show. The hashtag #SaveTheAcolyte is trending on X and a petition that was started on Change.org currently has 43,342 signatures. So what are the odds of the show getting renewed?

The box set contains a remastering of Mitchell’s albums from the late Seventies: 1976’s Hejira (1976), 1977’s Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter, 1979’s Mingus, and the 1980 live album Shadows and Light. You won’t find any unreleased recordings or outtakes here; Mitchell will include those on the official Archives Vol. 4, expected later this year.

Each record on The Asylum Albums (1976-1980) was remastered from flat analong master tapes by Bernie Grundman.

Typically, when a TV show gets canceled, the likelihood of it returning due to fan outcry is quite low. In this current age of television, many shows from popular networks and streaming services end up getting axed left and right. However, there are a few rare exceptions where pleas and demands from loyal viewers help earn certain shows an extra life.

For example, CBS' S.W.A.T. was once canceled after its sixth season, only for the network to reverse the decision shortly after. The procedural recently announced that it will be getting an eighth season after many believed it was going to end after its seventh. S.W.A.T. follows in the footsteps of several other TV shows that were canceled and then brought back, with some examples including Community, Family Guy, and Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
